Oregano Garlic Chicken Breasts

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Always looking for new ways of preparing chicken breasts without adding lots of extra calories. The chicken was moist, tender and well flavored. Made extra sauce to scoop on my couscous and would encourage anyone to do the same. Next time I will grate or finely dice the onion so that is better incorporated in the sauce. Could see this working equally well with rosemary instead of oregano. Thanks Felix.
